Simon Galbraith says Rupert Lowe’s party can ‘spark a British renaissance’ if it gets into power
The hard-right Restore Britain party has got its first major donation of £500,000 from an IT entrepreneur in a sign it may continue to pose a threat to Nigel Farage’s Reform UK.
Rupert Lowe, an MP who left Reform UK before starting his own party, announced on Tuesday that the British businessman Simon Galbraith had contributed two donations of £250,000 this year.
Galbraith said his company Cade Hill Investments had given the money as he believes that “most British people sense Britain’s decline”.
“There is a centralised, bloated and incompetent state which is increasingly undemocratic, British institutions are unfocused on what they should be for and our democracy doesn’t represent the interests and opinions of many,” he said in a statement. “Things are worse than most people realise, but the opportunity is much greater than everyone thinks too. If Restore win power, I think it will spark a British renaissance.”
